INDEXING AND MINING CONTENT OF MULTIPLE DATA SOURCES

摘要

A system and method are provided for indexing and mining content of multiple data sources. The method includes: providing a database of learned content of multiple data sources learned using text analysis, the learned content identifying one or more concepts to which a data source relates, wherein the concepts are cognitively associated with the data source and include concepts not explicitly referenced in the data source and providing an index of the learned content including associations between concepts with mappings between concepts and the multiple data sources. The method further includes receiving input of a query and using text analysis to analyze the query to determine one or more query concepts to which it relates and mining the indexed concepts in response to the query concepts to return a list of referenced data sources.
